ee ---- Be --SEE THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, MONDAY. MAY 7, 1928 --_-- -- --_------ Oshawa Man Succumbs to A 'Work Well Under Way on Widening of | on Road Near the Lake 13 May Be Completed Before End of Present Month -- Bridge Will Be Made 12 Feet Wider, Also Ap. proaches to It on Each Side -- : Work is proceeding speedily on the widening of the bridge on the lake road. A pile driver has been: placed, and the work' is being pushed fors ward as rapidly as possible, It is hoped to completet ,the alterations without traffic over the road being seriously impaired, FL) "I am no porphet," said City En- gineer Smith when asked for an ap preximjate date that the work might be fnished, He added that his de- . partment hoped that the bridge might * be finished by May 24, but he was not sure as to whether or not this could be accomnlished, It had been expected that solid bottom would be reached at a depth of about 18 feet, but this "bottom" proved to be a hard layer two or three feet thick, and they are going down past this to a firmer foundation, This means that work is somewhat slower, anil also that 35 foot piles instead of 25 foot will have to be used, When completed, the bridge will be 12 feet wider than it was formerly, The fill, approaching the bridge, has |; been widened about fifteen feet, both north and south of the structure, During the alterations, planks have been laid between the rails of the Oshawa Railway tracks and vehicles can pass over the bridge by using caution, Traffic may possibly be held up when the deck, or roadway, of the bridge is being renewed after the abutments are completed, however, Mr, Smith said, DONATE $200 T0 WNASTER FUND Appeal in Emmanuel Bap- tist Church Has Fine Response - -- : What may well be regarded as a record response to a denominpa- tional financial appeal was made "known in Emmanuel Baptist church yesterday evening when it was stated that at the close of the morning service $200 had been subscribed to the McMaster Ex- tension Fund; this did not inélude what had been pledged by McAias- ter men in town. When that is added the present total exceeds $600. Workers report that a con- siderable amount will be added to the above next Sunday, . It was stated that the amount required to place the University on a satisfactory financial basis is $1,600,000; also that during the first ten days of the campaign al- most a million dollars had been subscribed; which is far and away the largest sum ever sub- scribed by the Baptists of Ontar- io and Quebec for any single ob- ject, When the churches that are known to be working in the campaign, but who have not re- ported, are taken into considera. tion it becomes evident that the million mark has already been passed by a considerable amount and that the ultimate success of the appeal has been assured. Many considered the appeal for a million and a half as heroic, if not visionary, under present con- ditions; all must admit that the response is still more heroic, FIRE MIGHT HAVE BEEN SERIOUS Brigade Called to Fence and Grass Fire on King Street West en, The fire brigade was called out to a fence and grass fire Sunday after- noon on King street west. The fire originated in one of the parking par- ties who were taking advantage of the Red Pine Groye on Dearborn Ridge and threatened to become very serious among the numerous frame buildings which have lately sprung up in this section, and only the im- mediate response of the firemen with chemicals and other equipment suc- ceeded in isolating it to a section of line fence about 40 rods long between the newly opened Fern Hill* boule- vard and the Bartlett road. The dam- age amouw: .d to about $50 suffered by the late Mrs. Annis estate and F, G. Mackenzie, the owner of Dear- born Ridge Heights subdivision.

M, H, Irwin, barrister, who intends to start a law practice here. WAS NARROW ESCAPE FOR LOEWENSTEIN Philadelphia, Pa., May 6.--Al- fred Loewenstein, the Belgian mul- ti-millionaire, had a narrow escape from injury when he leaped bhe- tween the blades of the three pro- pellers of the airplane which brought him from New York as he alighted at the Philadelphia airport yesterday afternoon, One blade knocked his hat off and officials of the field said it was remarkable that he was not injured 'or killed, The propellers, although "dying" were still whirl- ing at a high rate of speed as the Belgian financier emerged from the cabin of the ten-passeneger plane, In his haste to avoid photo- graphers, Mr, Loewenstein jumped rfom the cabin and started toward an automobile parked about 30 feet away and cabin between the propellers, Someone shouted "duck" as the blade was only a few inches from "Mr, Loewenstein's head. This warning, according to Cap- tain Roger Praet, pilot of the plane, probably saved the rich Bel- gian from injury, LAURENTIAN FLOODS CAUSE MUCH DAMAGE Montreal, May 6.--Five high- way bridges in the neighborhod of Labelle and St. Jovite, and a $30,- 000 eleetric power and light plant at St. Jovite were washed away by the floods that swept through the northern section of the Laurentian district over the week-end, The floods resulted from the breaking of three power dams un- der the pressure of waters releas. ed by the melting of ice and snow during the warm weather of the past few days. St. Jovite is situated about 75 miles north of Montreal and La- belle is 35 miles north of St. Jo- vite. Despite the severe dam- age reported there was mo loss of life and no injury to persons. The Montreal-Ste. Agathe high- way and severzl other roads were blocked to traffic and the C.P. Railway division trains had to tranfer their passengers today at Prefontaine because it was feared that the tracks had been under- mined by the onrushing water that came through 2 break in the re- taining wall there, . The dam at Lake Croche was the first one to hreak. A few hours later the St. Jovite and Pre- fontaine dams smashed. With the bursting of the dam at St. Jovite the Veteran Vanches- tein electric power and light plant was washed away and the waters carried away several bridges in the vicinity, Tonight it was reported that the water was receding and that there seemed to be no further danger of more damage with the exception of what will be done to the high ways as the water draws away.

James Sweeney Delivers Fine Message to : Class With Right Rev. James Sweeney, D.D, Bishop of Toronto, officiating, over 75 young men and women of the parish last night received the sacred rite of confirmation in St. George's church. Every available seat in the edifice was filled, while the service was beautiful and impressive, 4 Before proceeding with his sermon, Bishop Sweency, tendered 'his con- gratulations to Rev. Canon C, R, De Pencier, rector of St, George's Chugh, and to the officials of the Sun- day School on the remarkably large class presented for confirmation here, year after year. He also gave public expression of his gratitude to the rec- tor, vestry and members of St. George's Church in the aid they had given towards the establishment of two, new churches in this city, and he wished the congregation "many happy returns" on the occasion of the fourth birthday of the dedication of the church, which falls on Friday of this week. Taking his text from Isiah 29:31, "They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength," Bishop Swee- ney reminded the members of the confirmation class and the congrega: tion that all strength, physical, intel- lectual, moral and spiritual comes from God. Has the athlete health and physical strength, it is a gift from God; if the scholar has intel lectual strength so that he can cope with the problems of education, he receives it from God; we owe our moral 'and ethical strength to God; and similarly from Him comes the supreme strength, the spiritual will power to accomplish what God would have us do. . Having reached an age of discre- tion, he continued, the candidates for confirmation came to publicly renew the vows made at their baptism, and to give themselves in seli-dedication and seli-consecration, This was one of the most solemn evenings in their whole life, the Bishop declared, The service was essentially one of strength giving in the service of grace; they openly strengthened the vows and promises of their baptism; and they received the confirming, strength of the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of coun- sel and heavenly strength. Bishop Sweeney continued by out- lining the objects and direction to which this strength should be used, First, and above all, make God the object of your service, even if you work through your neighbors and fellow man to Him, In everything we say, aid do, our strength should return to God, in thanksgiving, ser- vice, missionary effort, social ser- vice, and in the self sacrifice of our own service, whatever it be. The Bishop quoted the lives of four outstanding personalities, Daniel, Paul, Augustine and Frances Ridley Havergal, as examples in life of the strength of God which had been re- turned to Him in service, We need the strength of God eyery day, to overcome our difficulties, concluded the Bishop, urging the members of the confirmation class, particularly to use in their every-day lives the exer- cises of prayer and to worship Him on the Lord's Day, thus renewing their strength as Isiah's promise said, ELECT OFFICERS FOR COMING YEAR St. George's Young Men's Club Hold Lively Meeting A lively meeting of St. George's Anglican Young Men's Club was held last Friday in the school room.

[Bowmanville HIGHWAY BUST UKING SUNDAY Cars During Whole of Afternoon (B; R ly Jug eporter) Bowmanville, May 6~A steady stream of cars an the Kingston High- way Sunday afternoon and night did big business for the Cream of Barley Tourist Camp, The camp was going in full swing by one o'clock in the afternoon and hundreds of visitors arrived during the day to witness the marvels of the Morden zoo, Besides the tourist attractions along these lines, the refreshment booth and service station were greatly util- ized, The famous hot-dogs and red- hots were served out to satisfied cus- tomers, who either carried them a- round the expansive park or drove away with them to other pleasure resorts, It. was plainly a day for the enjoy- ment of the sunshine. Although a little cool to sit around the lawns parties were seen on every section o the park, Of special interest to the visiting public were the two goats, The chil- dren took a keen delight in watching these odd animals, or in catching them by the horns and daring them to butt in. But in one 'case the un- forseen really did happen. One youngster had the old Billy-goat hy the horns, and had not reckoned that behind him stood the other goat. It was not long before the latter saw that its companion was in a sac plight and therefore took it upon it- self to come to its aid. And it did. The impact which followed this deci- son could be heard for many feet, and the distance covered by the young lad through the air, was ap- parently quite satisfying to both ani- mals for they appeared to laugh, whether they did or not, is quite an- other question. The two tiny bears were another attraction, Throughout the entire day these little chubby creatures were photographed by many people. And they received a hostage of candics and favors from the visitors who took a special delight in getting them to climb the wire sides of the cage. The wolves and coons proyided their share of the amusement to ey- eryone, Their queer antics never fail to evoke much comment by the passers-by. On the whole the camp at this sea- son is a source of pleasure to the tourists and citizens of Bowmanville and during the coming warmer sca- son when boating and swimming are in vogue at the Cream of Barley Camp, many more will take advan- tage of the opportunities of such a rest-cure and blues-chaser. THIRTY CANDIDATES AT ST. JOHN'S (By Staff Reporter) Bowmanville, May 6.--Thirty can- didates were confirmed by the Lord Bishop of Toronto in St. John's An- glican church here this morning. The class was instructed by Rey, R, J, Shires, rector of the church, Every available seat in the hall was occupied in one of the most im- pressive services held here. There were 14 male and 16 female candi- dates. In his sermon' the Lord Bishop spoke to the confirmation class, us- ing as his text Hebrews 6:18, "The Hope that is set before us." It was extremely inspirational. Special mu- le and an augmented choir were us- ed, NINE BIRTHS DURING MONTH OF APRIL (By Staff Reporter) Bowmanville, May 6.--Vital statis- tics for the month of April are as follows: Births , compared to 10 for the same month of 1927; marriages 1, in comparison to 6 of last year, and deahs 3, a much smaller total than April, 1927, when therc were 8 deaths.

PEDESTRIAN 1S STRCCK BY CAR A minor accident occurred on King street east fate this morning when 2 car, said to have been driven by Mrs. Reynolds, of Bowmanville, ran into a pedestrian directly in front of J.

RT SEVEN MILES OF PAVED STREET Eight Miles of Sidewalk and Four and a Half Miles of Sewers Indications Are City Fathers Wil Have Heavy Session Ri Petitions for about seven miles of pavement, eight miles of sidewalks, over two miles of sanitary scwers and two and a half miles of storm sewers, as well as many other major and minor matters, are facing this city's wldermen this year, Some of these weighty matters will come up for discussion at the meeting tonight and Mayor Preston states, sadly, that he is afraid it will be a long session. The subway question, the sewage disposal plant problem, the reorgan- izing of the City Engineer's depart- ment and the appointment of a build- ing inspector, the purchase of the gas plant from the Hydro Electric Power Commission, and "a volume of miscellaneous business that would make a Philadelphia lawyer dizzy" were cited by the mayor this morn- Ing as items occupying the immedi- ate attention of the city fathers, Then there are the petitions to be dealt with. * A few weeks ago, the council in- structed the Beard of Works, in con- junction with the City Engineer, to bring in a report of petitions that had been received this year for public works, It was rather a lengthy pro- position, 'for the petitions ran into a large total, several having been re- ceived at each council meeting of the year, Paving petitions alone amount to a total of 38,394 feet, over seven miles ; sidewalks run up to 42,293 feet, just 53 feet over eight miles; sani- tary sewers wanted by local citizens would reach 11,790 feet, well over two miles, while stor msewers wanted to- tal 12,140 feet, or about two and a half miles, Needless to say, only a small part of this work can be undertaken by the city council this year, Then there is the subway question, with which the aldermen have been wrestling. The next move is the hearing before the Board of Railway Commissioners, probably at Ottawa, at which A. W. Green, solicitor of Ottawa, is appearing for the city. The council also has to face the matter of a modern sewage disposal plant, which has already been con- fronting 'them at this year's sessions. And then, the Hydro authorities are anxious for. an answer on the pur- chase of their gas plant. The city engineer has heen granted authorization to interview candidates for the position of engineer to assist him, and he will report to the Board of Works for final decision as to the engaging of the man. The reor- ganization of the department also in- cludes installing a private office in the city hall for the engineer. In short, the prospects are for sey- eral interesting council sessions in the near 'future, GIVEN REMAND FOR SENTENCE David Mann Pleaded Guilty to Five Charges of Houszbreaking David Mann, of Oshawa, who pleaded guilty in Toronto police court Saturday to five charge of housc- breaking, was remanded for sentence until Tuesday. According to the po- lice, Mann, who was arrested while trying to sell a stolen watch in a pawnshop, drove into the city from Oshawa. After the burglary, he would return to the motor city, Jul- ius Scizer, charged with receiving goods stolen by Mann, was commit- ted for trial. Recent Deaths BABY ROBERT LUSH The sympathy of their many friends in this city is extended to Mr, and Mrs. W. R. J. Lush, 82 Chusch street, in the death yesterday of their infant son, Robert John Lush, who died at the age of six weeks. The funeral is being held from the family residence, 82 Church street, tomorrow afternoon, EMPIRE'S HEAVIEST ENGINES In the last half of last year, the jan National railways put in service 40 new locomotives of the 4-8-4 type. The first to be put in commission in June was No. 6100, subsequently sent to the Baltimore Railway Centenary fair, where among other features it claimed some attention as the heaviest locomotive in the British Empire. Of the 40 of these engines built, 20 have been constructed at the Canadian Loco- motive company's works at Kingston, Ont, and 20 at the Montreal motive company's works. The two lots are almost identical except for details of equipment. The locomo- tives are intended for hauling either fast freight or pasenger service and for long runs over two or three divi- sions. All the engines are designed to take boosters, but only ten of those built at Kingston were so fit- ted jn the first instance. Michael S k Ulrei ian, Victim After Imbib. ing of Liquor Obtained on ~ Permit and a Quantity of Home Brew -- Coroner Dr, F. J. Rundle Decides Inquest is Unnecessary Michael Szewczuk, a Ukrainian who has resided in Oshawa for the past several years, died suddenly from acute alcoholic poisoning at § o'clock yesterday morning during dancing festivities at the home of John Pesar- chuk, 145 Conant street, in connec- tion with the christening of one of Pesarchuk's children on the day pre- ceding. Dr. F Rundle, coroner, who investigated Szewczuk's attri- buted it to acute alcoholic poisoning, There will be no inquest. Szewczuk, it is claimed had been drinking heavily for several days pre- ceding the christening and when he arrived at Pesarchuk's home to at- tend the celebration he was already intoxicated. Dancing and drinking were continued from Saturday night until early hours Sunday morning and the unfortunate man imbibed a quantity of liquor obtained under a permit and also homebrew beer, At five o'clock his friends noticed him slump into a chair and leaning for- ward in a peculiar position, They shook him and inquired if he was drunk but as he made no answer and was apparently unconscious they summoned Dr, R, B. E. Wilson, assis- tant to Dr, Rundle, who after a short examination pronounced him dead. Dr. Rundle was then called and aiter investigating the circumstances con- cluded that no inquest was necessary. Szewczuk, who is - a middle-aged man, first settled in Saskatchewan when he immigrated to this country from his native land. He was a farmer. there and is survived by two grownup children residing in that province. MARTIN THEATRE BEING RENOVATEED Both Interior and Exterior Redecorated--New Seats Installed Extensive , renovations to the New Martin Theatre were com- pleted Saturday says Ernie Marks, proprietor and manager, They in eluded a complete redecoration of the interior and exterior, with the installation of a new lighting sys- tem and also of an entirely new set of seats. d The interior decoration Is in the latest mode, with a "mottling" ef- fect that is quite attractive, The whole of the interior of the the- atre has been treated to the fresh- ening influence of the skilled dee- Orators, and now persents a very attractive appearance. Even the pillars have undergone transform- ation, and now closely resemble beautiful pieces of marble. Battle- ship linoleum has been laid on the floor, and leather-finish base- board has been placed around the walls. The lighting system has been entirely rearranged, and the num- ber of lamps has been increased. A complete new set of seats, the Jatest improved mgdel of the Pres- ton School and Office Supply Com= pany, has been installed. The ex- terior has also been redecorated, in a brown shade with white trimming. Mr. Marks states that, as soon as the leases of the present. ten- ants in his block have expired, he will extend the auditorium of his theatre to include the area now occupied by these stores. This will give seating accommodation of ap- proximately 1500. CONTEMPT OFLAW SEEN IN CHICAGO Scathing Report By Associa- tion Corroborates All Seid in Link With Politics ---- Chicago. May 6--While Chicago is congratulating itself on the clean-up | of crime and yice that is under way in the name of Chief of i Hughes, a promise that visions a spot- less town soon, the Illinois Associa- tion for Criminal Justice steps in, flashes a picture that shows the city in the hands of erinunals and corro- borates all that has been said of an "alliafice between crime and politics" Courts, judges and the State's At- torney are held responsible for the disgraceful conditions prevailing. The association is headed by Rush C. Butler, who is also president of the Illinois State Bar Association. It was formed less than a year ago by leading members of the Bar and lay- men and has been financed by the Industrial Club of Chicago. The report pictures crime as grow- ing in powerful as plying of its wio- lent trade in contempt of the law, and it lays a large share of the blame on Robert E.

The article referred to is also incorrect in stating that the employees "returned to work as an imdustrial union." As a matter of fact ,recognition of the Union was in no sense the point at issue, The sidewalks of New York are kind of exlusive these days.
